Rehearsals for Retirements

Nov 20 2009 Published by Moos under Thinking out loud, YouTube, traveling

Today is my last day in Napoli, I’m leaving to Rome tomorrow morning, hopefully morning… for 3 days then back home sweet home…

I’m having fun here… It’s a really nice place, and pictures are coming soon… I just came back from the Capodimonte Museum… I got stuck in the elevator for 10 minutes with an old man and on the way back I almost got hit by a car while I was walking on the sidewalk… I got the message Napoli… you didn’t have to make it that obvious… I already got it…

To be honest today my mood is very much down… like really down there… I don’t even feel like going out though it’s still 15:15

meh!

I’m planning my own rehearsals for retirement, if you know what I’m saying… I think I’ll start once I’m back home… It’s easier that way…

I loved going to Madre, the museum of modern art in Napoli… very inspirational… also visited Pompei the oldest remaining city in the world, destroyed by the eruption of  Mount Vesuvius so a lot of the city was saved under the ashes and they had to remove almost 6 meters of ashes… and they also found some dead bodies in their last dieing position… awful… a family with a pregnant mother and 2 children next to her… also a dog… and so on…

one more thing to say…

LONG LIVES PHIL OCHS AND GOD BLESS HIS SOUL

How can I describe this trip?? hmmm… AMAZING!!!

Let me tell you some of the highlights…

The city is beautiful!! I loved the weather! OMG! Why do I seem so excited while I’m writing!! anyway, the weather was beautiful… not that it’s not Kuwait, but here’s this, on the 3rd day it was sunny, cold and gently raining! how beautiful is that? tell me people!!

I walked a lot there, and though I came back 8 days ago, my right leg still hurts… on the 4th day there I couldn’t walk… period… but I did anyways : – D

Me and Miq went to the Van Gogh museum and the Rijksmuseum (where the original Rembrandt paintings are) … it was an overdose of creativity! Art was slapping me in the face! I didn’t appreciate painting as I do now, it just made me feel like a nobody, which I am!, but it was just overwhelming… to be face to face with history… or should I say face to canvas, yeah that’s better… to be face to canvas with such rich history… Ahhh, it just blew my mind! We visited each museum on a different day… cuz the first was enough for a day… seriously! there was no more mental capacity even to just observe such a … I don’t know how to describe it! the details, the brush strokes… it makes me feel ignorant and don’t understand anything… it was beautiful…

Everyone there had a bike, big and small, tall and short, and thin and fa… well, there weren’t many “overweight” people there… if you see any then they’re probably tourists coming to visit this lovely place…

I took exactly 510 photos and ended up uploading 130 on facebook, the place was just beautiful and everywhere you aim your camera you end up with a beautiful shot… they have different colors there! I think it’s due to the way the sun rays fall on the city… unlike here, where it gits you on the head! but I love my country, don’t I? ; – )

We went on this tourist trip to the country side… that was the highlight of the trip for me… I just went crazy over the boat, and that’s not just because my hair was flying with me, no I don’t think I’ve ever felt closer to nature than that… it was jubilation!

I wanna go back there again someday, now that I know where every “da3oos” in Amsterdam is!

maybe you should come with me? yes, you! youuuuuuuu!

ok maybe not… we’ll discuss that laTer
